This is customizable, just contact us to design your flock and get a price! This is an example starter flock of registered St. Croix hair sheep. Recommended stocking rate is 4-6 head per acre. Don't forget to include the lambs you will produce!
3 registered young ewes
1 registered ram (unrelated to the ewes)
1 wether lamb - castrated male (to keep the ram company when separated from the females)
Recommended to keep males and females separate except for mating time, and sheep need at least 1 buddy for company. Separation is recommended so you can control and prepare for lambing.
St Croix can mate twice a year, or three times in 24 months, or once a year - depending on your preferences. Lambing rate is typically 200% with twins and triplets very common in ewes older than 1 year.
Ewes are vaccinated against CD/T and abortive bacterias Campylobacter Fetus-Jejuni Bacterin and Chlamydia Abortus Bacterin. Ram & wether is vaccinated against CD/T.
